Chapter 314: Defeated in a Second?

Heaven's pride are all arrogant.

The Great Star Envoy, as the strongest heaven's pride since the founding of the Star Palace, is even more so.

She has always been the one defeating others across cultivation levels; yet now, her premonition tells her that someone can defeat, or even kill, her across levels.

Especially since this person was once defeated by her and forced to flee in a sorry state!

With such a great contrast, she naturally will not be convinced.

This feeling of being unconvinced caused her to hesitate for a moment.

And it was precisely because of this hesitation that she did not flee the moment the premonition appeared.

Just at this moment.

Mu Lingxi seemed to notice her gaze.

She turned her head to look at her.

"Great Star Envoy, we meet again."

"It is time to settle the previous accounts."

When Mu Lingxi spoke, a half-smile hung on her face, without a trace of aura leaking out.

However, upon seeing that beautiful smiling face, the sense of crisis in the Great Star Envoy's heart instantly intensified to the extreme.

It surged out like a torrent, making it difficult for her to even breathe.

The expression beneath her mask changed again and again.

After a brief hesitation, she ultimately chose to trust her premonition.

"Daoist Friend Great Star Envoy?"

Seeing that the Great Star Envoy stood still and unresponsive after his words fell.

Ji Zhangkong could not help but call out again.

Following his words, the Great Star Envoy finally reacted.

She glanced at Ji Zhangkong.

Ji Zhangkong smiled, about to repeat what he had said before.

The Great Star Envoy suddenly waved her palm, putting away the Star Chart behind her.

Then she turned and flew away...

Her speed was astonishingly fast.

Before Ji Zhangkong could react, she had already vanished into the horizon.

Ji Zhangkong stood there, mouth agape, stunned on the spot.

No...

What is she doing?

Is she in such a rush?

Could it be...

Did she suddenly encounter an emergency?

That's it, that must be it.

Only this reason can explain it.

Otherwise, she couldn't possibly be running away, right?

After all...

Before she left, it looked like their side held the upper hand in every way.

Even after she left.

Although their advantage was greatly reduced, it had not completely disappeared.

That man possessing a Dao Domain was already severely injured and, like Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li, had lost his threat.

The only ones with real combat power were the woman who wielded ice-type power and the two people who came with her.

Just three at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

They could be dealt with completely.

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate any longer, and strands of gray mist surged from his body.

He grabbed forward with his palm.

A large hand of Spiritual Power wreathed in gray mist grabbed toward Mu Lingxi and the others.

Mu Lingxi withdrew her gaze from the direction in which the Great Star Envoy had fled.

She felt some regret in her heart.

This Great Star Envoy was too alert; she had actually run away.

With Ji Zhangkong still watching here, she could not leave Wang Yu Yao and the others unattended to chase down the Great Star Envoy.

She could only let her go for now.

"You all just watch the show here."

"I'm going to slaughter him."

She instructed Wang Yu Yao and the others.

With a shift of her intent.

A strange, icy cold aura instantly permeated the heavens and earth.

As snowflakes drifted down, that large hand of Spiritual Power wreathed in gray mist was instantly frozen, then shattered apart.

She took a light step forward.

Her figure instantly vanished.

When she appeared again, she had already arrived at a distance of less than three zhang from Ji Zhangkong.

She waved her palm.

A Water Sword appeared instantly and slashed horizontally toward Ji Zhangkong.

That astonishing sharpness made Ji Zhangkong's pupils shrink and his heart leap wildly.

He hurriedly set up a defense.

Streaks of gray aura gathered before him, condensing into a layer of defense.

The next moment.

The Water Sword descended.

The sturdy Primordial Force collapsed instantly.

Following that, a spray of blood splashed up, and one of Ji Zhangkong's arms was severed at the shoulder.

He retreated in a panic, his face filled with horror.

How is this possible!

She is merely a Nascent Soul Early Stage Cultivator, why is she able to be this powerful!!!

The sense of oppression Mu Lingxi brought him was actually not a bit weaker than Nangong Yu back then!

Mu Lingxi's expression was calm as she pressed her palm down.

A Water Sword condensed and emerged once again.

As the water flowed rapidly, an astonishing sharpness spread out.

Whoosh!

With a flash of Spirit Light, the Water Sword flickered across Ji Zhangkong's neck.

Ji Zhangkong's face, filled with horror, instantly froze.

On his neck, a red line appeared.

The next moment.

His head slid from his neck, and fresh blood sprayed out.

A palm-sized Nascent Soul shot out from his body, its face full of terror.

The instant the Nascent Soul appeared.

Mu Lingxi raised her palm, and Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul was immediately gripped by an invisible hand, unable to move.

Mu Lingxi moved her thoughts.

Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul floated slowly toward her.

"No~"

"Daoist Friend Wang, don't kill me."

"As long as you can spare me, I will listen to everything you say."

Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul's face was full of terror.

His heart was already filled with regret.

He suddenly felt that he seemed to have made too much of a fuss.

Isn't it just that a younger brother died? It's not like he died himself, was it necessary to make such a big deal out of it?

Originally, he was destined to enter the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, and his future prospects were limitless.

Now look at this.

Not only is his future gone, but his life is also going to be thrown away.

"Sorry, your greatest use to me is..."

"To become a Medicinal Herb I give to Senior Brother."

Mu Lingxi giggled and pointed her finger.

A burst of cold air enveloped Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul, instantly freezing him.

Inside the solid ice.

The expression on Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul's face was clearly visible.

It was a complex expression that combined terror, unwillingness, and sorrow.

He had schemed against Wang Jianqiang for many years, always believing the other party was an ant that could be crushed at will.

But until his death...

He had never even seen the other party once.

He racked his brains to scheme against someone, yet that person played him to death without even showing their face!

How unwilling, how pathetic.

Mu Lingxi moved her intent and stored Ji Zhangkong's Nascent Soul into her Space Ring.

The Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator~

Good stuff.

Senior Brother will definitely like it.

In the battlefield in the distance.

Ye Lingyun knew well how difficult Mu Lingxi was, and had always been full of vigilance toward her in her heart.

Not only did she deliberately pull the battlefield to a location far away from Mu Lingxi, but she had also been keeping an eye on Mu Lingxi's movements.

Naturally, she saw that scene where she crushed Ji Zhangkong.

Although she had already been trying her best to overestimate Mu Lingxi in her heart.

But when she saw Mu Lingxi kill Ji Zhangkong as easily as pinching a chick to death, she still couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

Their eyeballs almost popped out.

Ji Zhangkong was a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator, and he possessed a Spirit Body, with formidable combat power.

Just like that, he died?

Because his mind was shaken too violently, his reaction was a beat slow.

Caught off guard for a moment, he was hit solidly by Qingcheng.

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and flew backward in a sorry state.
